5 lug

ok, I searched and found what I need to know, just want to make sure that i'm not leaving anything out, or getting something I don't need.

I'm about to start buying the parts for my 5 lug conversion for my 90 240 hatch.

Back:

S14 SE brakes, hubs, and rotors.

Front:

300zx rotors and hubs.

What else am i missing, I read the stickyies, but didn't understand it fully

I can use any type of 5 lug rotors, brembo, etc.?

wtf where did you get the idea that Z front fits S-chassis?

apparently you read something wrong.

if its a 5 lug rotor for s or z chassis it will work.

Like Levi said, the Z hubs will not fit on the front. Get 5 lug conversion hubs like Attain, GTO...

my bad, I read the sticky for the S14 version on this site!

so just get the 5 lug hub conversion from Attain!

and some nice slotted and drilled rotors?

that's all I need to get to do the 5 lug conversion?

I took a sleeping pill last night, and I was zoned out and what not! sorry for sounding like a moron! It knocked my *** out for 12 hours!

EDIT:

Has anyone heard of "ICHIBA"? I found front and rear 5 lug hubs for about $560.

You totally read the thread wrong, because it does specifically say in there that Z32 hubs don't work lol. Get whichever brakes are right for your application, don't get all this crazy slotted/drilled **** if the car is just a daily, no reason to waste money. Never heard of Ichiba at all.

I'd like to get atleast slotted, for better braking power, IMO.

I looked at them ichiba they looked cheap.

I just noticed you used my google image thing. I searched, but I'm not the best at searching, I always come up with something way off, but nearly all the time I search first.

I did search, but I was getting more and more confused, with every site I was looking at!

ok back on topic...

so just get the attain 5 lug hubs, 5 lug rotors, and new brakes, and thats it?

Front:
GTO/Attain/Peak Performance Hubs

OR

S14 Knuckles
S14 Spindles
S14 5-lug hubs
s14 Strut Mounting bolts
S14 Ball joint
S14 Rotors

Slotted Rotors. (No Need to do Slotted/Drilled)

Rears:
Z32 NA Hubs
OR
S14 SE 5 Lug Hubs

Slotted Rotors.

Calipers are up to you..but since you're down there..rock Z32 30mm in the fronts and call it a day.

(Oh God it's late, I don't know if I got all that right..I'll re-check it tommorow)
